Hi,

I go down to hire Iron and he tells me to come back when the combat is over?

Any way to fix this?

Thanks,
Michael

iirc, you can't hire him during battle and he has a problem with low leadership and he is expensive - if you don't have enough money you cannot rehire him

it's always helpful to read the threads dealing with the matter. Scorpian points out repeatedly in those threads up there that you need to finish the first simple quest (airfield) and then you can go and hire Iron, better use that translator girl to hire him, too.

I've done a search for some more hints but am having problems Hiring iron as well. I am close to halfway through the game, and have hired a number of Mercs with high leadership to recruit Iron, but to no avail. My last attempt was with Ron Raider Higgins, and even with his 87 leadership, Iron still does not want to play. I did notice he did say a new line about wanting to start a new contract, but when I hit RECRUIT he answers something like 'I have no need for that' like I am choosing GIVE.

Was the translator girl the only person to persuade him to join? Which is not an option for me as she died earlier on in the campaign.

What it this airfield quest? I don't recall it, but may have just forgotten I did it. Either way Iron doesn't want to join the fight.

yes, only "translator girl" can hire Iron (and also do some other things nobody else can). airfield quest means just taking that traditional airport sector.
but why would anybody even want Iron? russian garrison is there just to rise your stats by killing everybody :pitchfork:

Damn, that's a shame.

I generally like to hire every new character when playing mods, after all someone has gone to the trouble of creating them and it's half the fun of playing a new game.
